Mike,

An EXE suggests it will do something additionally to the functionality you
are describing. Perhaps a UI or data validations.

If this is not the case, I would make it a Multi-threaded COM DLL. Though
that would mean you need to distribute the VFP9T.DLL.

There is the Single-threaded COM DLL as another option. I believe it does
not require the VFP9T.DLL.


Yeah I agree it shouldn't be an EXE since no UI. I had tried the DLL approach but for some reason it didn't work. It's not an OLEPUBLIC class (at least not yet); it's just a Separator class (to be lightweight, although in today's world, nobody would notice the difference between a Separator and Session or Custom class).

I was trying to invoke it this way:

                        IF tlEntering THEN
loLicense = NEWOBJECT("MBSS_Licensor","MBSS_Licensor.prg","MBSS_Licensor.exe",.F., tlEntering, .F., pcPrintID, this.oUser.cUserID, this.oClient.cClientName, STRTRAN(_screen.cAppName,'\','\\'))
                                this.iLicenseKey = loLicense.iLicenseKey
                                IF this.iLicenseKey < 1 THEN && problem
                                        llOK = .F.
                                        loLicense.ShowMessage()
                                ELSE
                                        llOK = .T.
                                ENDIF
                        ELSE && exiting software; release license
loLicense = NEWOBJECT("MBSS_Licensor","MBSS_Licensor.prg","MBSS_Licensor.exe",.F., tlEntering, this.iLicenseKey, pcPrintID)
                                IF loLicense.lProblem THEN
                                        llOK = .F.
                                        loLicense.ShowMessage()
                                ELSE
                                        llOK = .T.
                                ENDIF
                        ENDIF

It doesn't instantiate.
